Issue with dragging a window to my second monitor.

The issue started after installing the new MacOS Sequoia (15.4.1), M1 Macbook.


When I drag a window from my macbook to my second monitor above it gets stuck at the top of the macbook screen. I need to let it to go and start dragging it again to move it to the second monitor. It is very annoying, any tips how to fix this?

Sounds like maybe the Display Arrangement could be off.


Go to Apple > System Setting > Displays > Arrange...

drag the external display in line with or higher than the main display..

then click Done


Wrong the window will stop if it is above the top of the external display.



OK if the external display is larger, then the window should drag across without stopping.



Right if the displays are the same size, then the window should drag across without stopping.
